Embodiment Construction

[0015] The invention provides a vehicle monitoring and notification system for use in a trucking industry. Freight flows have increased substantially in recent years creating congestion in the transportation system. The increased congestion imposes a cost on shippers, consumers and the environment In particular, the freight system faces significant capacity constraints at key freight gateways, such a port terminals. A system is needed that will provide efficient, reliable, safe and secure movement of goods, while improving environmental quality. In order to attain this goal, a system is needed that will reduce traffic, thereby reducing pollution. Additionally, a system is needed that will enhance security for the transportation of hazardous materials, thereby increasing public safety.

[0016] One solution involves using truck mounted real-time communication devices to gather information during a normal course of business. The information is gathered from trucks that are affiliated wi...

Abstract

A system and method are provided for aggregating data from multiple client terminals that are located on a vehicle, processing the data and communicating the processed data to multiple agencies. The client terminal devices are coupled to vehicle engine data bus to provide performance data and location data for trucks that travel in commerce. The data may be provided in real-time.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The invention relates to a system and method of aggregating data from multiple devices, processing the data, and communicating the processed data to multiple agencies to address public interest issues. In particular, the invention relates to a system and method of aggregating data from multiple devices that reside on a vehicle, processing the data, and communicating the processed data to multiple government agencies and / or non-government agencies to provide traffic, safety, environmental and security information. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Currently, commercial truckers experience extensive delay times within port terminals. The commercial trucks pick-up and deliver containers from the port terminals and need to be informed about wait-times so that alternate plans may be employed. Various other drawbacks exist with this system and with other systems known in the prior art. [0003] A system is needed that provides real-time monitoring of trucks wi...
